San Diego

We took another trip. This time we went to San Diego. Our trip began with a night in Vegas. We drove the strip so the kids could see all the lights and how neat Vegas looks. We went to church the next day and visited the Las Vegas Temple.
The next day we drove to San Diego. It was so nice. The sun was shining and it was a very comfortable temperature. We got there on Sunday.

On Monday we went to Sea World.

Daniel was big enough to go on the Journey to Atlantis ride. He was excited to go on this ride. After going on it once, Bryan asked if he wanted to go again and Daniel said no. He wanted nothing to do with it after that. He thought it was fun but too scary.

We watched Shamu and friends.

Took a ride on Elmo's flying fish and two other rides (I don't remember the names. They were the only rides all of us could go on.)

Played on the huge playground.

And just had a ton of fun.

We bought each of the kids a souvenir. Daniel picked a stuffed Shamu. It's funny, he can't remember the name Shamu. He will begin talking about it and then stop and ask us what the name is. Megan is usually the one that reminds him the name.

That night we went to La Jolla beach and felt the water on our feet and watched the sun set.After the beach we went to the San Diego temple. We were able to see how pretty it is a night up close. Of course the temple grounds were closed as so we did not take a picture.

Tuesday we took a Harbor Freight Excursion. This was an hour ride around the northern bay area.

It was neat to see sea life in the ocean. Not just at Sea World. We saw lots of sea lions. We also saw them training a dolphin.

We also saw lots of other neat things.

After the harbor tour, we went and toured the aircraft carrier "Midway".

In the brig.

We spent the remainder of the day at the beach. I believe the majority of this activity is on the video camera.

It was a great get away. We all had a lot of fun.
